Kick-Ass 2 Trailer one sheet poster

August 16th is fast approaching and today, at Comic-Con International: San Diego 2013, Universal Studios released their latest trailer for Kick-Ass 2.

Kick-Ass 2 is an action-comedy starring Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Chloë Grace Moretz and Jim Carrey. Directed by Jeff Wadlow, the film is based on the comic book written by Mark Millar & John S. Romita Jr. and is due to be released nationwide in the United States on August 16th, 2013.

Check it out below!

Press Release

Kick-Ass, Hit Girl and Red Mist return for the follow-up to 2010’s  irreverent global hit: Kick-Ass 2.  After Kick-Ass’ (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) insane bravery inspires a new wave of self-made masked crusaders, led by the badass Colonel Stars and Stripes (Jim Carrey), our hero joins them on patrol.  When these amateur superheroes are hunted down by Red Mist (Christopher Mintz-Plasse)—reborn as The Mother F%&*^r—only the blade-wielding Hit Girl (Chloë Grace Moretz) can prevent their annihilation.

When we last saw junior assassin Hit Girl and young vigilante Kick-Ass, they were trying to live as normal teenagers Mindy and Dave. With graduation looming and uncertain what to do, Dave decides to start the world’s first superhero team with Mindy. Unfortunately, when Mindy is busted for sneaking out as Hit Girl, she’s forced to retire—leaving her to navigate the terrifying world of high-school mean girls on her own. With no one left to turn to, Dave joins forces with Justice Forever, run by a born-again ex-mobster named Colonel Stars and Stripes.
